Time 2h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 aubergines, (750g total)
1 x 1.4 kg whole free-range chicken, jointed (ask your butcher)
olive oil
2 cloves of garlic
3 small fresh red chillies
1 cinnamon stick
4 sprigs of fresh woody herbs, such as rosemary, thyme, bay
50 g baby capers in brine
2 red onions
200 g ripe cherry tomatoes
50 g pine nuts
2 lemons
4 sprigs of fresh basil

Steps:

  • Trim the aubergines, chop into random 5cm chunks and wedges, place in a large bowl and season generously from a height with sea salt. Put aside.
  • Drizzle all the chicken pieces with oil, place in a large shallow pan on a medium-high heat, skin side down, to get golden on all sides, then remove to a large platter.
  • Wipe the salt off the aubergines and add to the pan, turning until lightly golden on all sides. Remove the aubergines to the platter and reduce the heat under the pan to low.
  • Peel and slice the garlic, prick the chillies and place both in the pan with the cinnamon, woody herbs and capers.
  • Stir and fry for a couple of minutes while you peel and finely slice the onions, then stir them into the pan, too. Cook for 15 minutes, or until starting to caramelize, stirring occasionally.
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4.
  • Squeeze the tomatoes in a bowl of water to remove the seeds - a fine nonna trick to prevent you getting splattered - then tear them into the pan.
  • Put the chicken and aubergines back in, drizzle over any resting juices, then pour in 600ml of water.
  • Sprinkle over the pine nuts, then squeeze over the lemon juice. Cook at the bottom of the oven for 45 minutes, or until golden.
  • Pick over the basil leaves and serve with a nice big bowl of lemony couscous.

SALLI'S FRIED CHICKEN



Salli's Fried Chicken image

This pan-fried chicken is manna for the health conscious, as it actually absorbs very little oil -- only two-and-three-quarter tablespoons for four servings (two pieces per serving).

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 3-pound chicken, cut into 8 pieces
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Pinch of ground, cinnamon
1 cup whole milk, or buttermilk
Solid vegetable shortening, for frying

Steps:

  • Place chicken iIn a large bowl; cover with ice water. Cover bowl with plastic wrap, and place in refrigerator to allow chicken to soak overnight. Pat chicken dry, and sprinkle with salt.
  • In a large shallow bowl or dish, season flour with pepper and cinnamon. Toss chicken pieces in flour, then shake off excess. Let dry for 15 minutes.
  • Pour milk into another shallow bowl, and dip chicken pieces into milk. Coat the pieces again with flour.
  • In a large, heavy skillet, melt enough shortening over high heat so that it fills pan to 2 inches. Brown chicken pieces on both sides, starting with the meat side down and turning frequently. Lower heat, cover skillet, and cook until chicken is just done, 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the size of piece. Remove cover, raise heat, and fry until chicken is crisp on both sides. Remove from skillet. Drain the pieces on a wire rack. Serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: For the best results, use a whole chicken that is about 3 pounds. You can also use chicken breasts or thighs, but the cooking time may vary.
  • Brine the chicken: Brining the chicken helps to keep it moist and flavorful. To brine the chicken, simply soak it in a solution of water, salt, and sugar for several hours before cooking.
  • Season the chicken generously: Be sure to season the chicken well with salt, pepper, and other spices before cooking. This will help to give the chicken a delicious flavor.
  • Cook the chicken slowly: The key to tender, juicy chicken is to cook it slowly. This can be done in a slow cooker, Dutch oven, or even in the oven. Cook the chicken until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving: Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it even more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Salina chicken is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
